How do you remember important content when listening to an audiobook?

Audiobooks are a fantastic productivity hack. You can listen to experts divulge decades of knowledge while you walk, drive, clean the house, work out, and more. But that also means you may not have your hands free to write down the information you’re consuming.

In today’s episode, I’m going to give you some tips to help you get the most out of your audiobooks.

There is no learning without remembering, but you can’t always stop what you’re doing to write down key takeaways. If you’ve been looking for strategies to employ to deepen your learning while you listen to content, this episode is for you.

What if the key to unlocking your potential lies not in certainty, but in deliberately seeking the unknown?

I sat down with Alex Hutchinson, author of 'The Explorer's Gene: Why We Seek Big Challenges, New Flavors, and the Blank Spots on the Map,' to really dig into the science behind our innate drive to explore.

We explore why our brains actually crave novelty (even when it feels uncomfortable) and how navigating that constant "explore-exploit" tension impacts decisions big and small.

You'll discover why developing a tolerance for uncertainty and discomfort isn't just for extreme adventurers – it's a trainable skill crucial for growth.

Learn how predictive processing helps explain our complex relationship with the unknown and why finding that sweet spot of challenge feels so good.

We also discuss how embracing uncertainty often leads to a more meaningful life and Alex shares a simple, powerful habit he uses to keep that exploratory muscle strong, reminding us that small steps into the unfamiliar can yield significant rewards for brain health and personal growth.

Ever wonder if your relentless productivity is hiding a deeper pain? Our host & CEO Alexis Banc has been there—juggling the roles of caregiver, entrepreneur and nurturer while feeling an underlying emptiness that no amount of busyness can erase.

In this episode, we'll dive deep into the science of happiness and uncover how our brains can trick us into masking depression with nonstop doing. We'll share how small, intentional actions - called “joy points”—can transform a day from being merely productive to genuinely fulfilling.

Our guest today challenges the traditional understanding of depression by introducing a new, less recognized form of it. Dr Judith Joseph is a Board Certified Psychiatrist conducting the first of its kind research study in High Functioning Depression in her laboratories and is here to share her findings, which are outlined in her new book High Functioning Depression: Overcome Your Hidden Depression and Reclaim Your Joy.

Alexis also explores her own journey through high functioning depression and how understanding our unique biopsychosocial makeup can help us reclaim our inner vibrancy. If you’ve ever questioned whether your drive is a sign of hidden distress instead of true fulfilment, join me in challenging this status quo.
